VALPARAISO | Police said the Valparaiso High School student accused of slashing five of his classmates told officers God directed him to do it because they were "sinners."

The boy is in need of help.

[GrandEagle]

Sounds more like allah than God.

[PLK]

Classic case of schizophrenic psychosis. The boy is sick.

Hmmm ... Call me silly, but I highly doubt it was God that was "speaking" to him.

[scan59]

No, but it does provide the media with another chance to make out Christians as kooks.

[kemathen7]

Oh, I know. But of course, the MSM will never point that out. They are only "reporting the facts". ***Rolls eyes***

[AppyPappy]

I don't believe it.

There is no way he was able to use word "God" in the public school.

[Freebird Forever]

God directed him to do it because they were "sinners."

You'd think he would have been directed toward the NEA people first.

[AmericanChef]

Moral: God bad, slashers good. *sigh*

Isn't this the same are where a couple of years ago a man was arrested for performing castrations on volunteers -- and was charged for practicing medicine without a license? It was reported here on FreeRepublic.

I am not sure but a Google.com search provided this about Huntington, Indiana:

No! I went to Valparaiso High School! I have never heard of anything like that. Valparaiso is an uppity twilight suburb of Chicago with a population of ~35,000. The biggest issue people are having now is that they don't want metal detectors in the schools because that implies they need them like a Gary, IN or south side of Chicago school. This kid wasn't even from Valpo; he was from Wauconda, IL which is way more rural than Valpo and probably further from the city. This kid is a whack job. Chances are, every school of 2000+ students gets a whack job sometime in its history. It just so happens that now the whack jobs kill and maim cause they heard the idea somewhere.
